PITTSBURGH – Jeffrey Myers, the Pittsburgh rabbi who watched as 11 of his congregants were gunned down during Saturday services, says he has become a political target and is receiving hate mail for saying he would welcome President Trump to his place of prayer.

What do you call that?

The greatest President in US history is sending 15,000 troops to the Mexican border to protect us from that caravan. What a caring and gentle man Trump is!

That "caravan" has guns and human shields.

Those Republicans were just being too cheap. I’m sure that adding 2 0s to the end of their offer would have worked better. This is just like Donny and the amount he paid to Stormy and that other woman.

An attempt to smear Mueller goes down in flames.

I'm sure Kid will claim it's a false flag operation. or just totally false.

The plan unravelled across US media on Tuesday, one day after Jacob Wohl, a 20-year-old conservative blogger, tweeted on Monday night that a "scandalous" story about Mr Mueller was about to break.

After his tweet, a number of US-based journalists, including Medium's Scott Stedman, began tweeting to warn people they believed Mr Wohl's referred to an apparent plan to spread "false accusations" about Mr Mueller.

Replying to @ScottMStedman
Two weeks ago, I was contacted by a woman who claimed to be a former associate of Mueller who said that she got a phone call from a man working on behalf of a GOP operative who was paying women to come forward to make up sexual assault allegations.

He and other US journalists said they had received an email from a woman named Lorraine Parsons earlier this month, who claimed someone working for a Republican lobbyist called Jack Burkman had contacted her.

Mr Burkman, who has a radio show, is notorious in Washington for spreading conspiracy theories and has been involved in a number of other high-profile publicity attempts around them.

In her emails, "Lorraine" said the man alleged he could help her pay off some of her family's $30,000+ credit card debt in exchange for her making accusations of sexual misconduct and workplace harassment against Mr Mueller, whom she told the journalists she worked with in the 1970s.

I would say you just can't make this stuff up, but apparently you can.

Your most useful post in quite some time. Thanks.

It might be that the drafters of the 14th meant something else.

So what do we do, build a time machine and ask them to take a vote?

I guess we can assume that Kid didn't even bother to read the article.

It appears that Mueller has spent the last several months fighting legal battles to subpoena Trump and force him to testify before the Grand Jury. It is all coming to a head.

Essex village used in 'appalling' Trump candidate ad
A United States congressional candidate has used a picture of a British seaside village to show what could happen if voters do not back President Trump.

An advert used an image of Jaywick Sands, near Clacton in Essex, to attack Dr Nick Stella's Democrat opponent.

The campaign picture, which showed an unpaved road and rundown homes, said: "Help President Trump keep America on track and thriving."

It has received angry criticism from locals and Tendring District Council.

Republican Dr Stella is standing in the 11th Illinois congressional district in the US mid-term elections against Bill Foster.

The advert, which was shared on Dr Stella's campaign Facebook page, showed a billboard congratulating congress speaker Nancy Pelosi and a message saying: "A vote for Foster is a vote for a speaker Pelosi. We can't go back to foreclosures, unemployment and economic recession."

The ruling clearly said allegiance comes with birth.
